Subject: Disk bottleneck
While using Debian Woody, working with large backup files,
the computer completely locks up while reading/writing to/from the disk
whenever I use "cp" on large files,
The same thing happens on every other Woody box I have.

I tried doing the same thing on a Mandrake 8.2 box, with no freeze-up.


Thank you in advance.
